Comment (by Denis-de-Bernardy):

 But... is there any need to change it at all? surely there will always
 been edge cases, like the one he describes, or the one I highlighted, that
 will never work no matter what, unless we store all of this as timestamps
 or equivalent, i.e. the number of seconds since EPOCH or since the
 creation of the blog. That seems a bit overkill for a few edge cases. :-P
